Preparation method of single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material, product and application thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material, a product and application thereof. The preparation method comprises two steps of calcining. According to the first step of calcining, a nickel-cobalt precursor and/or a nickel-cobalt-manganese precursor are/is mixed with a lithium salt, and the obtained mixture is calcined, so that a single-crystal lithium nickel cobalt oxide material and/or a single-crystal lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide material can be obtained. According to the second step of calcining, the product calcined in the step step is mixed with an aluminum source, and the mixture is calcined, so that the single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material can be obtained. The temperature of the first-step calcining is higher than that of the second-step calcining. According to the method, a specific mixing sequence and a calcining method are combined, so that the generation of an impurity phase in the preparation process of the single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material is reduced, the pure-phase single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material is obtained, the performance of the single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material is improved; and with the method adopted, the content distribution of an aluminum element in the single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode materialis easy to regulate and control, and the formation of an Al gradient material is facilitated, so that the capacity performance of the single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of battery materials, and relates to a preparation method of a single-crystal high-nickel positive electrode material, a product and a product application thereof. Background technique [0002] Since the first generation LiCoO 2 Since the commercial application of batteries, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in 3C products, transportation, aerospace and military fields due to their advantages such as high energy density, long service life, no memory effect, wide operating temperature range, and environmental protection. With the rapid growth of demand for new energy vehicles, LiCoO 2 The energy density and cost of batteries have gradually failed to meet market requirements. As a new generation of lithium-ion battery cathode materials, nickel-cobalt-manganese (aluminum) oxide, a high-nickel ternary or quaternary material, is widely used in the field of electric vehicles due to its high specific capacity and...
